In a cooking mood

My version of vegetable lasagna and apple cranberry crunch pie. I never made lasagna before, It overflowed the dish, but it looks good and is almost edible.

Looks delish, Deb!

Lasagna is best left for a period of 45 minutes to an hour after baking, which allows it to set-up and remain together when sliced/served.

What sort of ingredients did you use in the making of your lasagna?

Besides oven-ready noodles, ricotta, parmesan and mozzarella cheeses, frozen and thawed stir fry mix (that's a combo of sliced onions, green and yellow peppers), frozen and thawed grilled eggplant, mushrooms, crushed tomatoes, garlic powder and dried oregano.

Wow, Deb your ingredients for the lasagna sound great. you have everything in there but the kitchen sink. I would love it especially the grilled eggplant . Possibly to many ingredients made it overflow but well worth the overflow for all that flavor. I wouldn't change a thing just use a bigger pan or two small ones and like Marg said let it rest awhile after baking.

Sounds yummy!

If I am ambitious enough to try this again, it will be Dutch oven style lasagna. I was following the directions on the noodle package and it said to use a 9 x 13 inch baking pan - didn't say how deep and mine is quiet shallow. It was a learning experience. Also, I covered the top with aluminum foil while baking and the mozzarella stuck to it. I had 6 slices left, so I put those on top and put it back in the oven - uncovered.
